I'm with you on that. I plan to at least get the Raven & Duck may get as much as the intitial 6 set. I really hope the stretch goals are met. Would really like some of the others, the wings and the mystery figure (at least to see)....

Speaking from experience the 4H figures are AWESOME!!! I only need 3 from the 7th kingdom and I will have all the bulls elephants ladies and scarabus figures.
If you have some spare funds I highly recommend the ravens kickstarter, these will be the best yet IMO. (Make sure to get yourself the kickstarter duck though)

Got the 6-pack for now. If they unlock the others I'll probably mix it up some because I really want some of those stretch variants more.

I got the full pack of Scarabus variants, so it is tempting to go all out for all of these if they make them. So glad they are funded up so much already! We're definitely at least getting the 6-pack. And it's early days.

"The Foul" Or "Fowl" is the one I want most, that and the phoenix. I am hoping the mystery one is a blue jay... talked to CB about that last year and he said they might do one... but it will probably be something even cooler! I am waiting until SDCC. I may not sub for MOTU for the first time ever... I think I have most of what I want from that line. So I may have the money to get a few ravens instead. I have 5 Scarabus guys and they are epic!!!

I will NEVER believe that Mermista beheaded Mer-Man! You sit on a throne of lies.... and smell of beef and cheese, bio writer!!!!

So cool! I got my box of Scarabi out of storage to set them up (I've not opened most of them because I lacked space) in celebration of more Gothitropolis goodness coming soon! Well, next March. But soon-ish.

Considering we're only about $5,000 away from Quez, I think we'll make it! Maybe even tomorrow! That'll be amazing. The cool thing about the way this is set up... if someone is all-in, which I think quite a few might be, then they just add to the total as each stretch variant is opened up, making it go up even faster!

Yeah seems so. I wish there wasn't such a gap between the 12th figure and the wings though. If i remmeber correctly, its another 20,000 after the last figure to the first set of wings and then another 20,000 for the bone ones. That seems a bit much.
Its cool they added the accessory set as an option for an add on.

I knew of Scarabus, the Time Keeper and the Raven, i have seen the Duck as well before BUT as far as i understand:

The FOUR HORSEMEN went to kickstarter so they can make those figure prototypes into action figures. They have reached the goal and now they can make six of them for sure, and right now even a seventh one.

I hope i´m correct so far.

If all the goals are reached they can make wings and even skeleton wings as accessories for those figures…i hope i´m right again.

But i still have some questions:

I guess the fans are the ones who donate their money for that project. So these figures are made out of fan sponsored money and than sold in figure form to the same fans who donated their money? Isn´t that paid double? Well depends on how much you donate…

And another thing:

Am i wrong or are the figures all exactly the same except for the head and the coloring? (The white Raven looks as if he would be exact the same as the black except for the color?) They don't get individual armor?

Correct.

Correct.

You aren't donating your money toward the line. You are basically pre ordering the figures. You are "pledging" to give the 4H so much amount of money in exchange for the figures. That pledge is your payment towards the figures. They used Kickstarter cause they weren't sure if they could meet the minimum amount of orders needed to produce the figures. They need a solid commitment before moving ahead into production. It's the same thing Mattel does with MOTUC and the thermometer.

And another thing:

You are correct. They are all the same. The Raven is the new figure in their Gothitropolis line and the other characters are just variants of the Raven character. They're just like any kind of variant that you see in other lines. They do this for every figure they release for their line. One standard figure than a bunch of variants that mostly are just new heads on the same body with a new deco.
